Rachel draws corpses for a living. Consequently, her and her husband’s move to a creepy mansion deep in the Appalachian Mountains seemed like a dream come true. However, when intrusive neighbors, odd occurrence, and the secrets of the Hadley House begin to reveal their sinister nature, Rachel discovers what was once an inspiration to her art could mean the end of her sanity… and her life.Between birth and death resides the short glow of an ember known as life.

Their efforts have produced splendid works that are still marveled at today, but to one degree or another they lacked a realism and authenticity that would not come about until 1839 with the public unveiling of the daguerreotype.

And one Pennsylvania man would extend the reaches of this technology to blur the very lines between life and death at his humble studio at 23 Forster Street. Views: 657
